Mrs Agustín Hayes
Registered Psychologist
“I am a multi-cultural therapist with a proactive approach taking your goals in mind to improve your mental health and reach your therapeutic goals. I use a variety of evidence based approaches including schema therapy and narrative therapy and mainly work with Third Culture Kids (TCKs), and Expats/Immigrants.”
About Me
Approach
Feeling at home—within yourself and in the world—can be challenging when you've lived across cultures. As a therapist who grew up between Argentina and the U.S. and studied in Europe and Brazil, I understand the unique experiences of expats, third-culture kids, and digital nomads. My passion is creating a safe, affirming space where globally minded individuals can explore their emotions, challenges, and identities without judgment. Even though I am a registered psychologist in the Netherlands I am currently a digital nomad and my practice is 100% online.
